The Write Stuff: Memoir Writing through Artifacts
Class meets Tuesdays, 2:30 - 4:30 p.m. January 21 - February 25 at the Saline Senior Center, 7190 N. Maple Road, Saline. $35.
Historians say every artifact tells a story. The things we choose to keep hold memories of significant life events and people. We'll explore the use of artifacts to remember, organize and write the stories of our lives. Participation requires active discussion, writing and sharing. Bring an artifact from your childhood (stuffed animal, souvenir--something you've saved) to the first class. Cheryl Valentine is a cultural anthropologist and retired historian with the Michigan Historical Museum.
